Sloop John B {in the style of The Beach Boys}

Quote from wikipedia:
It was originally a traditional West Indies folk song, "The John B. Sails," taken from a collection by Carl Sandburg (1927). Alan Lomax made a field recording of the song in Nassau, 1935, under the title "Histe Up the John B. Sail". This recording appears on the album Bahamas 1935: Chanteys And Anthems From Andros And Cat Island.[1] The song was adapted by Weavers member Lee Hays, and that group recorded it as "The Wreck of the John B." The Kingston Trio's recording of the song, also under the title "The Wreck of the John B.", was the direct influence on the Beach Boys' version.
"Sloop John B." was ranked #271 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.[2]
The John B. was an old sponger boat whose crew were in the habit of getting notoriously merry whenever they made port. It was wrecked and sunk at Governor's Harbour in Eleuthera, The Bahamas, in about 1900.[citation needed]
